So. What is Kimchi?
Kimchi is a spicy pickled/ fermented cabbage that is often enjoyed as a side dish in Korean meals. There are over hundreds of varieties of kimchi that are purely based on the simple idea of pickling vegetables. Kimchi is an amazing side dish and can be made with almost anything from the more traditional Chinese cabbage to radishes, anchovies and green onion. Kimchi is relatively easy to make, in the case that you have all the necessary ingredients. The most traditional type of kimchi is made from a blend of salt, garlic, Chinese cabbages, vinegar, pepper paste, fish sauce, spring onions and other spices.

Originally Kimchi was eaten to provide a refreshing taste in the mouth after the heavy flavours of Korean cuisine. It helps digestion, prevents yeast infections and has been suggested by studies to prevent the growth of cancerous cells, as it is infused with large amounts of Vitamin A, B and C. Likewise it is often used in a variety of Korean dishes ranging from soups, to fried kimchi rice or simply as a side dish.
